Claim the Free Monthly API Credits on Claude Max and Team
Max and Team plans now come with up to $500 a month of Claude API credits, and you have to claim them yourself. How much your plan gets, the exact clicks to claim it, what you can build with it, and the one thing it doesn't cover
Since October 7, every Claude Max and Team plan comes with monthly credits for the Claude API: real money to run your own apps and agents on Claude, on top of your normal plan. But nothing happens until you claim it, and whatever you don't use disappears at the end of each month.
Here's how much you get, how to claim it in two minutes, and what it's actually good for.
How much your plan gets
| Plan | Every month |
|---|---|
| Max 5x | $100 |
| Max 20x | $200 |
| Team, per Standard seat | $20 |
| Team, per Premium seat | $100 |
Team credits are pooled into one balance and capped at $500 a month: three Standard seats and two Premium seats come to $260. Free, Pro and Enterprise plans don't get credits.
